Have. Never liked chorus. Live, lead tone has always been bare-bones and all I do to the rhythm tone is squash and/or EQ it. I like a bit more gain than the usual blues tone, though. No delay/flange/phaser except for a specific part, no reverb unless it's a particularly dead room. When recording, record totally dry and let the engineer add whatever is necessary for the mix.
Unusually for a (predominantly these days) funk player, almost never use wah for rhythm either. Can't stand it when I see ostensibly funk guys use it to death. See, my attitude toward funk rhythm is that when you're not soloing, you're more of a percussion instrument than a melodic one, the aim to get hips shaking and crotches thrusting. The Wah sweep, even short ones, doesn't have the immediacy that leads to that except for very specific circumstances, in my opinion.
